Health Equity

Committed to recognizing and confronting barriers to equitable health.

As outlined in the Health Equity Charter by the Association of Ontario Health Centres, we will identify, name and confront inequity by:

Assigning priority to population groups who have the greatest health needs and least access to services

Involving the communities we serve in the design and delivery of our programs

Developing anti-racism/anti-oppression strategies to identify, name and confront practices that reproduce oppression within our organizations

Developing human resource policies and practices designed to ensure that the diversity of the communities we serve is reflected at all levels – volunteer, staff, management and board – in our organizations

Ensuring our policies, procedures and staff training meet the linguistic, cultural and other needs of the diverse communities we serve
